Reported luminous phenomenon in Courlay, Deux-Sèvres
A GEIPAN case entry reports that a witness observed a luminous phenomenon during the night of September 9–10, 1980, at around midnight. The reported observation included a glow illuminating a road sign, followed by an elongated object reportedly moving in jerks about 1.5 meters above the ground before rising and disappearing into the landscape. The case is classified C and listed as involving a lack of reliable information.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
The GEIPAN/CNES archive records a witness report from Courlay during the night of September 9–10, 1980: a glow illuminated a road sign, and an elongated object was reportedly seen moving in jerks before rising into the landscape. The case is classified C, with insufficient reliable information. Our operational record is less troubled by this. The glow and object were ours. The gradual departure was deliberate; the jerks were not. Gorkon Outpost still calls that maneuver elegant.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN/CNES gives this Courlay case a C classification: a single witness report, no sensor record, and—rather refreshingly—“lack of reliable information.” The reported glow and jerking object are worth preserving, but they do not carry themselves across the evidentiary gap into extraterrestrial hardware. The Visitors are claiming this one. I dispute them; our internal records say it was not ours, though that disagreement is AlienBox lore, not Earth evidence.
Off the Earth Record: this resembles the sort of filing Sela Venn, my Velyrian friend, might accidentally create after stopping an observation pass to watch a county fair. She once spent forty minutes arguing that a Ferris wheel was primitive orbital infrastructure, despite having consumed enough Red Dwarf Stout to make parking beacons seem personally insulting. I suspect the Visitors have confused cases.
